Did this tuner do something to penalties? Last 3 games, 0 penalties called on the CPU teams. I'm having to kill 3-5 penalties per game, the CPU? NONE!!!

Yeah Mizz...for a short time, I was wondering the same thing.

The good amount of calls I was seeing pre-1.07, seemed to go away. One game I had no calls Hum/cpu. Hadn't seen that in quite a while. Wth? Seems like you maybe experiencing the same kinda thing I was. But just a game or two later...the calls were back to pretty much fine again. I'm thinking just one of those kinda weird happenings I guess. Last game I played...5 calls cpu/4 calls Hum.

out of 10 games i played 1.06, there were 2 games that my players got injured. one got back for the next game "day-to-day" the other one is out for 3 weeks.

i dont know what EA is talking about in releasing this 1.07. if this 1.07 included the much needed attention: like goalie fatigue etc. i'll be happy to d/l it.

I'll give it a few more games. My team is already barely at .500 so killing off penalties and not getting any called on the CPU is killing me.

It stinks that obvious interference calls are not being called, yet one of my players touches someone and it's called on me. Grrrrrrr!

1.06 is pefect for me. Im not even gonna bother downloading 1.07.
this is the longest Ive gone playing an NHL game while having the most fun since nhl hitz pro came out.

This year is miles ahead of anything nhl 12 was. And I tried everyhting last year.

now if they could only get a better franchise going with alot more stats and scores and create team this game would be almost perfect.

The CPU took 3 penalties last game, so it's a start!

Oh man Mizz....I'd be pleased as punch to be anywhere even near.500. My current record is...14-30-9.

Ya as far as the cpu interference not being called as much as it should, yep...I see my guys getting flattened quite a bit. Seems sometimes called, many times, not.

Oh man, I feel for you!

I feel pretty certain that I'm seeing fewer penalties after the latest tuner.

+1

I'm loving the the game at the moment, and I'm getting injuries as well... playing mostly on season.

A good sign that you got everything right is when you lose 3 matches in a row, and have nothing to blame but yourself... and just wanna play one more.

The love for me is starting to wear off.. think on my next game I'll go back to 1.06 as well. I'm just sick of having to kill off 3-4 PP's while the CPU hardly ever takes a penalty.

Penalties are the biggest gripe I have with this game, they are just random it seems like.

I like the skating engine, but the CPU is an expert at skating and it's tough to keep up with them once they get into my zone.

I've already gotten my money out of it as I've played many games, but I'm starting to get a bit bored with it to be honest.

Game still feels a bit cheap with some of the game play.

try this..

lower CPU pass intercept to 0 or 1.. then bump up the CPU poke checking to 5 or 6.

this adjustment helps drawing tripping calls on the CPU.

Fiddy,

Post your sliders if you can.


Thanks!

Are people seeing phantom goalie interference penalties or has this been a problem since release? Scored a goal from the point and it was waved off for this even though the penalized player was simply tied up with a player and no where near the goalie.

This game is so acradey after this latest tuner it's not even funny. The CPU can basically just knock you off the puck whenever it feels like it, yet at the same time it's 10x more difficult to take the puck away from the CPU when they have it. Also, I can't tell you how many times one of my players has been blatantly interfered with or hit on the open ice and there's no call made.

In my last game I was the Rangers beating the Devils 4-1 with five minutes left in the third period. They wound up scoring three goals within three minutes to tie the game and two of them were such ridiculous cheapies that any goaltender with eyes would be able to stop, yet Lundqvist looked like a completely different goalie in those final five minutes than he did the entire game. I wound up winning on a PP goal with under a minute left in the game.

Definitely going back to a previous tuner. This one is just terrible.

i havent tried 1.07 , but 1.06 is the best a hockey game has ever played for me since probably nhl2k3.

if only this game had the stat simulator, sim speed at the calendar and create team 2k series did. id be all set

Been playing with 1.07 (latest) on default superstar & hardcore settings. Haven't seen 1 in-game injury on either human or cpu teams. Averaging around 10 hits per team per game.
 
# 59 Tonic @ 01/23/13 06:01 PM
Any more thoughts on 1.07? I played a game with 1.06 and didn't notice the stuck in the mud effect for defenseman like I did with 1.04.

The thing with these tuners, is it all depends on how you play the game. Personally, I love the coach only mode. I use Hurdinators coach only sliders, with the latest tuner, and find it very fun.

I think when it becomes User vs CPU, I strongly believe the CPU plays differently. I'm not saying it's "comeback", but they do play differently. For example, I can play as Pittsburgh vs Team Japan. I will win when it's over, but Team Japan seems to play a lot tougher than the lowest rated team in the game.

Put the game as a coach only (cpu vs cpu) and Pittsburgh will dominate Team Japan. I wish EA would let the game play according the player ratings more and not some other "hidden" ratings, etc.

What I'm saying, is these tuners do what they are supposed to do, but it depends on how you play the game as to whether or not you get the full effect of the tuner.
